Building a business takes real energy and real brainpower, and I wasn't performing optimally because my body wasn't performing optimally.</p> <p>I knew I had to do something about it.</p> <p>A friend introduced me to Rob Dionne, a certified personal trainer who works with clients online and in person. He also co-hosts the <a href="http://openskyfitness.com/podcast-episode/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Open Sky Fitness podcast</a> with his wife Devon and runs the really active <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/openskyfitnesspodcast" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Open Sky Fitness Facebook group</a>.</p> <p>Since we started working together, I've lost 5 pounds, gained strength, and generally feel more energized during the day. On the surface, investing 20 minutes in a workout seems like going backward; that's 20 minutes I should be working! But I've found it pays dividends in better energy the rest of the day and better sleep at night.</p> <p><em>Note: <a href= "https://nickloper.lpages.co/leadbox/142bbcef3f72a2%3A12b7a20bab46dc/5758218697441280/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here to download Rob’s top tips for fitness and nutrition for busy hustlers from this episode.</a></em></p> <p>During our coaching calls, I'd often find myself saying, "This is really good stuff, we should be recording this."</p> <p>And that's how this episode came to be.</p> <p>Tune in to hear the most important health and fitness factors, how they can fit into any schedule, and Rob's analysis of one Side Hustle Show listener's daily routine.</p>
